Ingredients
1 egg
30g baby spinach
15g fresh dill, roughly chopped
1/2 ripe avocado, sliced
1tsp pink peppercorns

Method
First, hard-boil the egg. Place the egg into boiling water and simmer for 7 minutes (for an oozy middle) or 8 minutes (for a set yolk). Allow to cool, by running the egg under cold water. Peel and half.
In a small bowl toss the spinach, dill, pink peppercorns, preserved lemons and smoked salmon. Use 1 talespoon of lemon juice to coat the avocado slices (to avoid browning) and add to the bowl.
To make the dressing, whisk together the remaining lemon juice, olive oil, dijon and capers. Season to taste.
To serve, place the egg on top of the salad and drizzle over the dressing.
